That, my dear friend is the absolutely best thing for this kind of thing. If it can be fixed, this should do it.
Video of it in action.

So what is happening is that the hot water is causing steam to rise creating the slightest 'vacuum' in your shower. The further you point the shower head away from the curtain, the further the curtain comes into shower.
You can do two things. One, angle the shower head closer to the curtain, itll help push the curtain away and will somewhat level it out. Or buy a curved shower rod.
You can get an inexpensive one like this or the more expensive alternative that rotates to free up space when not in use.

Just got this from Amazon the other day. I love it. Take it with you anywhere. Works great. I leave my home at 1am and my kids and wife stay at home alone and this makes her feel much much more secure.
Yes! This works great: https://www.amazon.com/Curved-shower-rod-Adjustable-inches-66/dp/B0035QA99I
Yep, or Amazon has these great shooting muffs.

Well yes, but cycle through multiple grit levels, using a stick or paddle up to a raised surface to help maintain a consistent angle.
By the way, you can find honing paddles similar to what he is using on Amazon: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000UVS62S
I think poopyboobies is talking about gliders which go beneath legs like drink coasters - they ease the movement of furniture, protecting the floor - they don't keep large furniture from moving
http://www.stayfurnituregrippers.com/ You might try grippers - but any you get in the dollar store are not likely to work well
They also sell gripping rug-pads for beneath carpets; putting an area rug/carpet beneath your bed might help - they even sell some in ultra-gripping fabric.

Popular budget offerings for electronic earpro are Howard Leight Impact Sports and the Peltor Tacticals. If you want bluetooth you need these Peltors.
Bought these, never looked back. They lock up very tightly on the nut on 3 contact points and I haven't had them slip, They work great on loosening up seized tie rod adjusting nuts.
Even easier use this.

A anti-slip rug mat can help. But what really fixed it for me was a futon cover that had sewn-in straps that tied onto the futon frame -- I bought mine from the futon store.
Damp-Rid is great stuff! We leave a tub in the bathroom behind the toilet and it sucks all the moisture out of the air.

What, like [this] (https://www.amazon.com/Sylvania-HRK-BX-SYLVANIA-Headlight-Restoration/dp/B00429NKWK) kit?
Nothing beats liquid bandage for cuts like that.

Get damp rid. $10 should last about 6 months.

They make a USB hardware "mouse jiggler". I guess someone could look and see that another mouse driver is operating but I don't think that would throw a flag.

Maybe more "off-the-shelf"-y than "hack"-y, but get one of these:
Pull Down Spice Rack
And fill with your bottles. I'm guessing it wont fit your biggest bottles, but it might go a long way to sorting some of your small to medium stuff.
(*Formatting)
for when your halo 2 disk stopped working on your xbox
For the lazy:
$20 at walmart:

$25 on Amazon if you don't like leaving your house:
http://www.amazon.com/Rubbermaid-Pull-Down-Spice-Rack/dp/B002I2OBIU/ref=pd_sbs_k_1
Try a portable deadbolt, found here or here or here
3rd one is probably what you're looking for
Alternatively, you could get a wireless door alarm that has a keypad. Found here or here
-
The best part about getting a cheap alarm system is that if he opens the door it will fill the house with a deafening screeching noise. And when you get home, the topic will likely come up "oh we needed to get into your room for [insert innocent excuse here]" So if you choose this option you need to have a conversation beforehand establishing firm boundaries that under no circumstances can anyone go into your room

That is $35 for a 6 pack. They are actually quite good at blocking the light. They make them in several different weights too, so you can block more or less light.
I was about to tell you not to use vice-grips as a wrench, but then I googled it. Buying the hell out of one of those now, thanks.
This wouldn't work, mice are too smart. You might catch 1 but the rest will know to stay away after that. Have to be careful about putting human scent on the bait too, they'll know somethings up.
I've used this and this to good effect, but you'll have to move the trap after catching 1 or 2.
Really, catching or killing them isn't effective, you're better off removing any incentive for them to be there and then making it inhospitable for them. Peppermint oil worked for me.
